As the number of jihadists involved in the Tunisia jihad massacre grows, UK PM Cameron said it was time for his country to become “intolerant of intolerance” and crack down on the ideas that fuel Islamic State group-inspired terrorism. Typically, British Muslims and their leftist apologists “worry that such sentiments and steps risk criminalizing religious conservatism or nonviolent free speech.” The body count, the human toll is a religious right — an Islamic imperative — that’s the priority. That’s what matters. Not stopping the slaughter, but ensuring that the ideology that commands this bloodshed remains untouched and off limits.
200% rise in Islamic terror arrests among British teens.
Considering how the UK ignored the tens of thousands of rapes and the sex trafficking of British non-Muslim girls, and suppressed reports of these Muslim crimes for years, I highly doubt that Cameron has the will or the stomach for what is required, especially after his clueless remarks in the wake of the Tunisian massacre.

New Tunisia arrests as Europeans honor attack victims
Seven alleged accomplices of gunman detained as UK expects British death toll to reach near 30
SOUSSE, Tunisia (AP) — Top European security officials paid a somber homage on Tunisian sands Monday to 38 people killed at a beach resort, as Tunisian authorities announced the arrest of seven alleged accomplices of the gunman.
British officials confirmed that most of the dead were British, and Prime Minister David Cameron said it was time for his country to become “intolerant of intolerance” and crack down on the ideas that fuel Islamic State group-inspired terrorism.
Cameron’s office said that 18 Britons have been confirmed dead, and the total is expected to rise to around 30.
Tunisian Interior Minister Mohamed Najem Gharsalli on Monday announced the arrests of several Tunisians allegedly from a network behind attacker Seifeddine Rezgui, a 24-year-old student who was killed by police near the scene of the attack.
Authorities say he acted alone during the rampage but had accomplices who supported him beforehand, providing him with weapons and logistical support.
A person close to the investigation told The Associated Press that seven people were arrested in at least three different cities and were being interrogated in the capital Monday. The person was not authorized to be publicly named speaking about the investigation.
British Home Secretary Theresa May, French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere and Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon joined Gharsalli on the beach in front of the Imperial Marhaba hotel in the Mediterranean resort of Sousse for the tribute Monday.
Standing on the sand surrounded by security officials, they at one point put their arms on each other’s shoulders.
Gharsalli said he and the European security leaders agreed to work together on security and economic cooperation.
Friday’s attack in the resort of Sousse was Tunisia’s bloodiest ever, and the deadliest for Britain since the July 2005 London transit bombings, in which 52 commuters died.
Cameron announced that Britain would hold a national minute of silence at noon on Friday, a week after the attack.
Describing IS as an “existential threat,” Cameron said defeating it would be “the struggle of our generation and we have to fight it with everything we can.”
He said that meant confronting extremist ideology, even when it is not violent.
Cameron wrote in the Daily Telegraph newspaper that “we must be more intolerant of intolerance — rejecting anyone whose views condone the Islamist extremist narrative and create the conditions for it to flourish.”
He said that starting this week public bodies including schools would have to take steps to “identify and tackle” radicalization.
Some Muslims and civil libertarians worry that such sentiments and steps risk criminalizing religious conservatism or nonviolent free speech.
Cameron’s comments underscore the difficulty of combating Islamic State’s violent fundamentalist ideology, which paints the West as an enemy of Islam and is spread through sophisticated online propaganda. Police estimate that 700 young Britons have gone to IS-controlled areas of Syria and Iraq.
Cameron said that despite the attack the government was not advising Britons to avoid travel to Tunisian holiday resorts.
He said the nature of the struggle against terrorism meant “nowhere is without risk from Islamist extremist terrorists.”
Cameron told lawmakers in the House of Commons that the Tunisian attacker and a suicide bomber who struck a mosque in Kuwait the same day “tried to strike at places of hope: in a country with a flourishing tourist industry that is on the road to democracy and a mosque in Kuwait that dared to bring Sunnis and Shia together.”
“They will not be cowed by terror and we will stand with them,” he said.

We’ll see if he actually makes good on his statements. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that we have to profile Muslims, monitor mosques, and keep a close watch on Muslims in our neighborhoods, our schools, businesses – every place. Cameron said it – confront the extremist ideology even when it isn’t violent. And I’ll add this word to his “even when it isn’t violent” – YET.
Whether people like it or not, Muslims cloak themselves in a thin veneer of civility. However, at the LEAST provocation, they will throw off that cloak, and expose themselves for what they really are, murdering savages. Watch any undercover video of what is taught in the mosques, and you’ll see for yourselves. A Muslim is a Muslim. They all read from the same book, and they all adhere to the same text. Even the president of Turkey said there are no moderate Muslims.

Monitor mosques? I think not. This is war. Bomb every mosque, starting with Mecca n Medina.

Frankly, I would like to see that, and I’d love for that whole area to be turned into a sea of glass, but it’s probably not going to happen. So, it’s up to us, the people, to keep tabs on the muzzies around us, report what we see, and don’t let go. We need to be like a dog with a bone.

This death and destruction that was the result of Muslim terrorists who were engage in the militant jihad for Islam is a sad and tragic reminder of murderous evils that are the outcome of people believing in Islam with the Koran that is the base and foundation of this religion. For the Koran does ,indeed, instructs in violence and killing. As for example 9:5:111. 47:4. Furthermore as strange, odd and insidious as this exposes the mind warping effect of Islam may have on a person. It might be that those Muslim terrorists in their brutal, ruthless and deadly jihad did have in their own deluded and sick Islamic way of thinking did have “good intentions.” After all, they were killing for their god, Allah. Therefore ,this further shows that the old saying may be true. Which is that “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”

You’d have to destroy every copy of the Koran, the Suras, the Hadiths, and other Islamic writings in order to eliminate the Islamist terrorist threat, because these books advocate the terror. If you don’t believe it, you haven’t read the Koran. It’s straightforward and clear. Since you can’t face that reality, you shall fail to stop these terror attacks. If you don’t know your enemy, you are doomed to failure. And you can’t admit who or what the enemy is.

The mere existence of Islam in any form on the planet is a threat to all human life on the planet.

The movie comes to mind, Casablanca, “round up the usual suspects”. P.M. Cameron is an Islamic apologist. And, If I went on vacation Tunisia would rank right up there with Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan…
